ABOUT US

Founded in 2011 by members of The Retired Teachers of Ontario/Les enseignants et les enseignantes retraités de l'Ontario (RTO/ERO), The RTO/ERO Charitable Foundation aims to be here now and for the future of seniors in Canada.

Vision and inspiration

The RTO/ERO Charitable Foundation intends to leave a lasting legacy by creating opportunities for research and for initiatives that seek to improve the quality of life of seniors across Canada.

The RTO/ERO Charitable Foundation is inspired by The Retired Teachers of Ontario/ Les enseignants et enseignantes retraités de l’Ontario (RTO/ERO), which was established by active and retired teachers who fought to ensure their present and future peers benefitted from pension reforms. Now they continue this legacy of service to others by expanding their reach to support the lives of all senior citizens.

Mission

• individual voluntary contributions
• fundraising activities by individuals & RTO/ERO Districts and community groups
